00:00So, do you think this is more a complaint at this point, Jacoby Brissett or Alex Van Pelt?

00:07I think it's Brissett.

00:08Okay.

00:09But, it's probably both.

00:10I think it's more about Brissett than Van Pelt would be my answer, if you're gonna make

00:13me lean one way or the other, but I bet they're frustrated about everything.

00:16The lack of creativity, the lack of targets, the lack of involvement, the lack of beat

00:21we talked about.

00:22Fred Warner's pick six, Brissett's wide open, sorry, Pantano's is wide open right in front

00:27of Brissett.

00:28And so, I think it's more about the quarterback, and I'm sure these guys who are practicing

00:32with Drake May and go, well, Drake May gets me the ball in preseason games and in practice,

00:36why can't this bum get it to me?

00:38I think it's more about the quarterback, but I think the Van Pelt frustrations are mounting,

00:42Keith, I do.

00:43Yeah, I think they're definitely probably annoyed at Alex Van Pelt and how the whole

00:46thing is set up.

00:47And, you know, we've already seen guys around the league, right?

00:50There was the meeting with the Bears, where they were like, we don't like what's going

00:54on here.

00:55And they still had one, right?

00:56And I think I wouldn't be surprised if the Patriots feel the same way, like this is not

01:00the best utilization of us, right?

01:04We can think whatever we want of the receiving core.

01:06They obviously have confidence in themselves and they feel like they're not being able

01:09to showcase it.

01:10So I think it is kind of a shot at both Van Pelt and Brissett, but who do you think it's

01:15more about?

01:16I think it's probably more about Brissett because he did have 32 pass attempts.

01:19So it's not like they're running wishbone and they get like one pass a quarter, like

01:2332 pass attempts.

01:25And all you have to do is find some of those highlight tapes where you're like, oh, there's,

01:29oh, there's an open guy missed.

01:30Oh, there, there's another open guy missed.

01:33And I'm sure there's a little, you know, annoyance at the offensive line being like, Hey, give

01:37this guy like a half more second and maybe he can get us the ball.

01:40But there's enough times where Brissett has had time and either throws it away, throws

01:46it too high, too low, takes a sack, whatever, and they feel like they should be getting

01:51the ball.

01:52So I think it's in order to be Brissett-Van Pelt line, but I bet they're kind of annoyed

01:54at all of them.

01:55Yeah.

01:56I mean, I'm sure they're, they're all on the list.

01:57Uh, you know, nevermind, uh, guys like Elliott Wolfe for not giving them a better quarterback,

02:01giving them better linemen, et cetera, et cetera.
